Human wealth evolution is an accelerating expansion underpinned by a decelerating optimization process

Paolo Sibani, Steen Rasmussen, Per Lyngs Hansen

Optimization and expansion are two modes of staged evolution of complex systems where macroscopic observables change at a decreasing, respectively increasing, rate. A prime example…

Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics of Self-Replicating Protocells

Harold Fellermann, Bernat Corominas-Murtra, Per Lyngs Hansen +3

We provide a non-equilibrium thermodynamic description of the life-cycle of a droplet based, chemically feasible, system of protocells. By coupling the protocells metabolic kinetic…

Ionic Cloud Distribution close to a Charged Surface in the Presence of Salt

Olli Punkkinen, Ali Naji, Rudolf Podgornik +2

Despite its importance, the understanding of ionic cloud distribution close to a charged macroion under physiological salt conditions has remained very limited especially for stron…

Rod-like Polyelectrolyte Brushes with Mono- and Multivalent Counterions

H. Fazli, R. Golestanian, P. L. Hansen +1

A model of rod-like polyelectrolyte brushes in the presence of monovalent and multivalent counterions but with no added-salt is studied using Monte Carlo simulation. The average he…

Applying a potential across a biomembrane: electrostatic contribution to the bending rigidity and membrane instability

Tobias Ambjornsson, Michael A. Lomholt, Per Lyngs Hansen

We investigate the effect on biomembrane mechanical properties due to the presence an external potential for a non-conductive non-compressible membrane surrounded by different elec…

Membrane pinning on a disordered substrate

R. Podgornik, P. L. Hansen

We investigate interactions between an elastic membrane and a substrate characterized by quenched positional disorder in the height function. We show that the positional disorder t…
